[solidcodes]

hi guys i'm very noobs on javascript

how do you call a function inside a function?

thank you very much.

You can only access a nested function within its containing function. Variables defined in the outer functions body are accessible from the inner function, but not the other way around. I hope that made sense...

If you have this:

function foo() {
  var i
  function bar() {
    alert(i);
  }
}

Then you cannot call "bar" from outside of the "foo" function.

On the other hand, you can do this:

function foo() {
     bar();
}

function bar() {
     return;
}

That is not a nested function though

You're right it isn't but it's probably what the OP wants.
